"Hello Good Morning" is a song by American musical trio Diddy – Dirty Money, released on March 30, 2010 as the second single from their debut studio album, Last Train to Paris. The electronic dance song incorporates an acid squelch section in the middle eight, and was written by Marcella Araica, Richard "Rico Love" Butler, Clifford "T.I." Harris and Nathaniel "Danja" Hills; the latter also handled its production. Southern rapper T.I. guest performs a verse on the song and Miami-based rapper Rick Ross guest performs on the music video and official remixed version, the latter of which replaces T.I.'s portion with a verse by Trinidadian-born rapper Nicki Minaj.
The song's musical composition was inspired by Diddy's experiences in Ibiza night clubs; its lyrics focus on sex, money and hedonism. Alongside the aforementioned remix, a "Grime Remix" with Skepta and a "Team UK remix" with Tinchy Stryder and Tinie Tempah were also released. Critics noted the track as one of the better songs from Last Train to Paris, with praise for Danja's production. However, its lyrics were criticized for being superficial and lacking substance. An accompanying music video, filmed by Hype Williams, features the trio parting in various nightclub settings in Los Angeles; Diddy also drives through a city during the nighttime, and T.I. performs his verse in a hotel. It was inspired by the 1995 film Heat. An edited version of the clip was made for the official remix, and a completely new street party-themed video was filmed for the grime remix.
"Hello Good Morning" was promoted with several live television performances, including season nine of American Idol and Friday Night with Jonathan Ross. "Hello Good Morning" was the album and group's first song to enter the Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at number 27. The song received gold certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for selling in excess of 500,000 copies. Internationally, the single peaked at number 22 on the UK Singles Chart, and was particularly successful on the German Black Chart and UK R&B Charts, where it reached numbers one and eight, respectively.
